Announcing Certified for Microsoft Teams
Skype for Business certified peripherals will work with Microsoft Teams, but they will not be given Teams certification until they meet new requirements. In addition to the benefits of Skype for Business certified devices described later in this article, you will receive new benefits from a Certified for Microsoft Teams device include:
- User notification of events and alerts from the Teams client (e.g., meeting starting, voicemail or missed call)
- Ability to activate the Teams client or respond to notification with a press of the button (e.g., to join a meeting).
Certified for Microsoft Teams peripherals will include both new devices designed from the start for Microsoft Teams as well as some currently Certified for Skype for Business devices with most of the new functionality via a firmware update.

- Automatic selection of default audio device and prioritization if multiple audio peripherals are present

- Audio devices (e.g., headsets, and speakerphones) offer Basic call control across when used with a PC andor a Mac devices including at least with answer/hang-up, mute/unmute, and volume control.
- Audio quality (embedded in the device): no echo or excessive glitches, echo cancellation across devices, wideband audio with no echo or distortion or glitches
- Video quality: Noise, color, image detail, jitter, latency, frame rate, field of view
Administrator Experience

While the bigger police departments have gone digital and trunked radio, there is plenty of uhf/vhf analog traffic still out there. Analog if far from obsolete!!! Google police scanner. For example if you were to connect that scanner to a computer sound card and then install WACARS/ACARS decoding software on that computer and program your scanner to a few ACARS frequencies you could then track most of the aircraft flying over your area, plot it on a mapa and read airline messages from home office to the pilots of those planes. -- Panzer Panzer240 9/2/2010, 7:44 น. If you look up the pager freqs instal POSAG software you could decode pager messages.
